6 week adult art course
The Learning Centre at Butler Gallery hosts a series of engaging and experimental adult art courses bringing participants on a creative journey through art making. Workshops are led by professional artist Rachel Burke and take place in a welcoming and supportive environment, nurturing individuals’ creative thought and practice. Courses are available on either a Thursday evening 5.30pm-7.30pm or Friday morning 10.30am-12.30pm.
Participants will experiment with different art mediums and gain creative confidence to develop their own work. Participants will be introduced to contemporary Irish and international artists, new styles and techniques. It is an important aspect of the course to develop an awareness of artists that are currently working and how they approach subject matter, develop ideas and techniques in their work. We will be looking at composition, line, tone, colour, mixed media and collage, subject- matter, all aspects of drawing and painting. During the duration of the course participants will be taught elements of portraiture, landscape and abstract painting.
